The bi-monthly Police Panel took place on Tuesday night. After a very quiet last meeting there was much more to report.
A group of children , some of whom maybe as young as 8 are creating trouble in the Greenway/Boulthurst Way/Red Lane/Holland Lane areas. They appear to delight in throwing gravel, smashing windows and otherwise menacing local residents. It seems one of the ring leaders may well be known to the Police and they will be looking to put a stop to this as soon as possible.
Other anti social behaviour has been taking place in the sheltered housing at the top of Coldshott and in the flats off the Greenway where fire extinguishers have been set off.
Also at Coldshott a couple of cars have been burnt out and two JCBs on the old Ajax site have also been set alight causing £150,000 of damage.
Oxted South and Hurst Green on the whole is a quiet, pleasant and friendly place to live.I trust this is all just a temporary intrusion and things will be back to normal as soon as possible.
